❌ SB61
Regards courts and court procedures
Current Status: In House Committee (Judiciary)
Summary
The bill amends various sections of the Ohio Revised Code related to courts and court procedures, including provisions for municipal court judges' jurisdiction, the powers and duties of clerks of courts, and the handling of civil actions and tortious conduct in court. It also repeals several existing sections of the code that are deemed outdated or unnecessary.
Rationale
The bill primarily focuses on procedural aspects of the court system, which does not directly align with the LP or LPO's emphasis on individual rights and limited government intervention. However, it does not overtly conflict with their principles either, resulting in a mixed alignment score.
Risks and Concerns
- Potential for increased government control over judicial processes
- May not adequately protect individual rights in legal proceedings
